Recent studies have suggested a potential but inconsistent link between UQCRC1 and Parkinson's disease (PD). For the first time, we systematically investigated the association between non-synonymous variants in UQCRC1 and PD risk using data from the UK Biobank with half-million participants, which provide evidence supporting the role of UQCRC1 Protein-truncating variants (PTVs) in PD (P = 1.20 × 10, OR = 6.59) and highlight the importance of large-scale population studies in identifying rare genetic risk factors.
最近的研究表明泛醌细胞色素c还原酶核心蛋白1(UQCRC1)与帕金森病(PD)之间可能存在联系,但这种联系并不一致。我们首次利用英国生物银行中50万参与者的数据,系统地研究了UQCRC1非同义变体与PD风险之间的关联,这些数据为支持UQCRC1蛋白截短变体(PTV)在PD中的作用提供了证据(P = 1.20×10,比值比[OR]=6.59),并突出了大规模人群研究在识别罕见遗传风险因素方面的重要性。
